One of the challenges I believe all independent / self-published
authors face is awareness. There are literally hundreds of authors publishing
fantastic novels and short-stories on a daily basis, posting updates, blogs,
and free copies to entice a following. With so much activity occurring each and
every second of the day, how does an author expand his/her reach? How does one
make contact with the core customer an author seeks – the reader? This author
has decided that attracting a fan base must include online and offline
marketing efforts. To that end, through my private consulting company, I have
decided to start promoting indie author book shows to connect author and
reader.

Currently, I am nearing venue contract for a first New
York based event that will provide authors an opportunity to reach actual
readers. There will be several promotional opportunities available, from solo
vendor booths to attended booths, show sponsorships, giveaways, and everything
in between. The book show will be effectively promoted in advance to attract
readers from across the NY Tri-State region (New York, Connecticut, New Jersey).

Author - Terrence Roth

I'm an
aspiring author, husband, and father of two living in Patterson, New York. Recently
I turned a new page in the story of my life (no pun intended), publishing my
first fiction novel – “The Motivator”.

The journey
toward my life’s passion has been a bit odd, realized after unleashing my
personal power, separating from the limiting security of a stable corporate
career. I invested twenty years of my life in various corporate Finance roles,
none of which produced an ounce of the passion coursing through my soul today.

I'm dedicated to this calling and embrace the many
challenges posed by publishing written works that seek to entertain or
enlighten. I can't say that I'll always write fiction, but I love a great story
and have many to share. Sprinkled between the novels I write, short-stories
will satisfy many whimsical ideas. I look forward to dancing with fear as my
aspirations and ability develop over time.
